The Princess Bride

The Princess Bride is solid for a cult classic. It's funny, the lines are quotable, and there are some entertaining parts. It's not really my thing, but it wasn't terrible.

They probably could've come up with a better title for The Princess Bride. It's not very descriptive. But I guess the whole movie basically is about her. I hadn't ever seen this movie before, which, in certain circles, would be considered crazy. I liked it more than Labyrinth, at least (although that’s not saying much, because I didn't like Labyrinth at all. I even rated it 2/5, which is pretty rare).

Wicked City

Unbeliveably visually unappealing. Ugh. How am I supposed to like an anime that completely lacks attractive characters? The twist at the end was interesting, although partially predictable, but I didn't enjoy the animation style at all.

Evil Dead 2

At first I was like, "fuck, why would he go *back* to that cabin?" but then I was reminded that he never escaped in the first place, so it was okay. I liked this scenario much better than the first one; starting out with one person and adding more was way better than starting off with lots of annoying people. The cheese and gore factors were both lower than in Evil Dead, which made it better. I found it to be an acceptable movie.

RoboCop

The best out of the series. The plot is engaging, and you've got lots of good characters to be interested in, too.
